China's New Type 056 Corvette
The corvette model features a 76 mm gun, four SSMs, an FL-3000N air-defence system and a Z-9 helicopte
During a courtesy visit to Hong Kong University on 4 November, Major General Wang Junli of the Hong Kong People's Liberation Army (PLA) Garrison presented Professor Lap-Chee Tsui, a vice-chancellor of the university, with a model of what may be a new PLA Navy corvette.
Featured on the Hong Kong University website, the model bears the number "056" where the pennant number would be placed, suggesting that this new ship may be called the Type 056. The presentation may also indicate that this new corvette could replace or supplement the six Type 037 Houjian 528 ton YJ-1 (C-801) ASM-armed fast-attack craft based in Hong Kong since 1997.
